Rehabilitation is a process of curing where physical therapy serves rehabilitation. It consists of a series of treatments aimed at the patient's needs and is conducted by a rehabilitation team. Its objective is not to stop the pathological process, but is focused on the consequences of such a process. A physiotherapist attempts to restore and preserve the highest possible level of motor function. He or she undertakes procedures of preserving the range of movements, muscular strength, coordination and endurance. It is also necessary to monitor the patient's status and his or her improvement. The physiotherapist's role is to educate patients and their families on how to motivate them to daily physical activity, which is planned depending on the age and the clinical status of the patient. In order to improve the quality of the physiotherapeutic care, of dedication to the patient and efficiency, clinical guidelines are created, as well as local protocols. They are used to describe the mode of operation and the scientific grounding of individual procedures.
